Holiday knitting 2008 - yikes!

In the two years since I have begun knitting, I have made a grand total of about three holiday gifts: a hat for Blair, a scarf for Rob and another scarf for my sister Jeanne. Because of the stress they can inevitably create, I made a conscious decision never to make more than three presents for Christmas.

So much for rules...

This year, I'm making six different gifts, double my so-called limit, and luckily two do not have to be made until well into next year. The ones that do have a December 25th deadline are my mother-in-law Terry's blanket, my other sister Cindy's scarf/stole, Blair's scarf and Patsy's mini-shawl. If I get really ambitious, then I also have a scarf for my aunt Edna and a hat for my brother-in-law Gregg.

And then there's all the WIPs I still wanted to finish from summer. So here we go...let's see if I don't absolutely go insane.
